Soyfoods are high-quality proteins that protect again prostate cancer in men. A little soy is protective for young girls against breast cancer later in life. Soyfoods have also been shown to reduce the risk of recurrance of breast cancer by 25%.  Just don’t overdo it if you get your soy in soy sauce, for example, as it has a very high salt content. It’s better to opt for unfermented soyfoods like tofu, soymilk, edamame, soy nuts and sprouts. Good fermented soy products include miso and natto, two staples of Japanese cuisine.
